Time Travel Adventure

He took out another piece of paper from his body. It was just paper, flesh-colored paper. No, it didn't feel like paper.

Yaoyao spread the strange piece of paper on the table. There was nothing on the pen, but he could actually draw on the paper.

What a great pen! I felt like I wanted to connect with it. I walked closer and saw that Yaoyao was carving a face.

Moreover, Yaoyao is very skilled at painting. With just three strokes, the spirit of the face comes out. The charm comes out even before the shape is drawn. It's amazing.

I wanted to applaud but was afraid of disturbing Yaoyao's performance, so I decided to just watch quietly until Yaoyao finished drawing.

The dogs passing by would all say, "What a cow!" Yaoyao holds the painted face and asks me to try it.

I was a little scared, but seeing Yaoyao’s sincere face, I closed my eyes and gave it a try.

I felt a cool sensation on my face, as if I didn't feel anything. When I opened my eyes, I saw the person in the mirror.

It feels strange yet familiar. Is this really my face? It's not an exaggeration to say it's another person, with eyes, eyebrows, and mouth.

"I want to learn! I want to learn! I want to learn!" I hugged Yaoyao's arm and shook it, and Yaoyao looked at my face.

He was also full of praise, saying that I had a good foundation and could integrate so well.

Later, Yaoyao and I studied it all night long, and only left at dawn. To sum it up, it was that piece of paper that made the difference.

Then she asked me to learn how to draw faces and gave me homework, saying that next time I should be able to draw a person's spirit with three strokes, just like her.

This is so difficult. Not to mention when Yaoyao will come back, just the three strokes that Yaoyao learned today are enough for me to learn for a long time.

Judging from the look of Yaoyao, she should be here soon. It's too much. She's forcing me to go into the store. Otherwise, there would be no one to watch in the yard.

Like a deflated ball, he sat back on the bed and began to ponder and think, trying to find a solution. But for Yaoyao, spooky ideas would definitely not work.

I decided to get serious about it. I spent the whole morning drawing on the table. When I couldn't take it anymore, I fell asleep on the table.

When I woke up, it was Hongdou who was knocking on my door. I almost suspected that I was dead. I looked at the crumbling door and decided to reinforce it myself.

The door opened before I even went to open it. I looked at the person who hurried in and began to feel really bad for my door.

Hongdou saw me sitting there and said, "Miss, why are you still sitting here? Go and help me."

Help you? Help with what? I started to think about what promises I made last night. It seems I didn't.

Before I could react, I was dragged out and a veil was stuffed into my face before I could wash it.

I walked all the way to the store, and there were still a lot of people inside. I didn’t know what was going on.

The pen was stuffed into his hand and he was then pushed onto a stool. The first customer held a piece of paper with a strange flower ornament drawn on it.

The customer tapped his forehead, took out the pen, and decided to start working.

I really couldn't have gotten through this afternoon without eight bottles of Red Bull. I was so sleepy that I wanted to fall to the ground and fall asleep.

But the customer didn't want to do it. He forced me to sit down and gestured with a piece of paper above his head.

No matter how big the painting or how small the flower, Hongdou was so busy that he had to hold back his anger.

You know what, I wasn’t sleepy at all after getting so angry. I kept this mentality and continued to deal with the rest of the people.

My hands are starting to cramp a little, like I have Parkinson's.

In just a moment, my fingers suddenly became stiff and couldn't be bent back. When there was a click, the moment my hand was bent back, I felt so refreshed that I shook my hand. I didn't sleep well today, and I had been sitting for so long.

I was so exhausted that I wanted to find an opportunity to slip back to my bed. Once I covered myself with the quilt, even a god couldn't wake me up. The thought of my bed filled me with excitement.

I was caught by Hongdou again. I had almost one foot out of the door when Hongdou suddenly appeared in front of me and looked at me seriously. This expression made me feel guilty. What was I feeling guilty about?

Or maybe she was too familiar with Hongdou and treated her as a sister instead of a maid. So even though she had known about the affair between Shen Jing and Ling'er for a long time, she had never told Hongdou anything about it.

Hongdou has worked with Ling'er for such a long time and they have a very good relationship. It has also been such a long time that Hongdou has been with me, and has always been checking the accounts alone. After I was injured recently, I have been staying in my room and would not go out if possible.

This is probably because I didn't care enough about Hongdou. Anyway, I feel very guilty now. I sit back on a cushioned stool to make myself more comfortable. My butt hurts and I want to touch it hard.

Will I get hemorrhoids if I continue like this for a long time? How do I treat hemorrhoids in this era? This idea came to my mind, but before I could think about it, Hongdou suddenly stood next to me, and I felt a ray of light looking at me.

It can't be like this, it can't be like this. Come to think of it, it's Hongdou who didn't ask me. If Hongdou had asked, I would have said it myself. After I had this thought, my back straightened a lot. That's pretty good, isn't it?

"Do you want to ask about Shen Jing and Ling'er?" I asked this question even though I knew the answer. This embarrassing situation made me even more uncomfortable. I found that I was the one who disturbed the situation every time. Next time, I won't say too much. Let it be embarrassing.

Hongdou still looked at me without saying anything. I stood up and was about to leave, but just as I stood up, Hongdou grabbed my arm and said, "Miss, did you know this a long time ago?"

I wanted to shake my head, but after looking at Hongdou's serious face, I nodded. I knew everything, but it was just half and half guesses, so I guess I knew it.

"Well, Miss, since no one tried to stop her at the beginning, she should have had a chance." Hongdou was telling the truth. At the end, her voice started to sob a little. I was a little confused when I heard the sobbing. What happened?

I took out my handkerchief and wiped Hongdou's tears. "What happened?" I still didn't quite understand. She was crying out of anger. Could it be that this girl was having an affair with Shen Jing? That was impossible. She just had feelings for Ling'er, so she couldn't accept it?

It doesn't seem like Hongdou is that kind of person. After all, she is a capable person. How could she be hurt by this kind of emotion? That must be because of Zifu. It seems that I really don't know how deep the relationship between Zifu and Hongdou is.

"Is it because of Zi Fu?" Fortunately, the people in the room went home early to rest because of a busy day's business. The workload at this moment is almost the same as that of others in a whole day. No wonder I feel so tired.

The most important thing is to comfort Hongdou first. When Hongdou mentioned Zifu, her originally stable emotions collapsed again. I have such a bad mouth. I should have kept silent if I had known. I really want to slap myself twice.

I held Hongdou in my arms and comforted her gently. According to my experience, the more I coaxed her, the harder she would cry. I comforted her for a long time. When Hongdou's mood returned to normal, I thought of the old method and gave her a drink. That should be enough.

But it's still too early, and my favorite stall hasn't closed yet. There is wine, which I can drink raw, but my stomach doesn't agree. And Hongdou doesn't seem to be able to drink much, so I'd better go to a random stall early.

I found a store close to home so that I could take Hongdou home if I drank too much. I arrived at the store at the door and saw the second floor. I thought about the scene. It was embarrassing, so embarrassing. I left quickly and found a store with partitions. The privacy was quite good.

Hongdou looked at the table full of wine. She was not shy or at a loss as I had imagined. It seemed like this was the first time I had a formal drink with Hongdou. Before I even started, Hongdou had already drunk three glasses of wine, and I did not stop her.

After drinking a pot of wine, Hongdou's eyes began to turn red. "Ling'er and I have known each other for a long time. We were orphans when we were young. We lived together for several years. One day, we went to steal the buns together."

When Hongdou mentioned buns, she happened to be holding a bun in her hand and looking at me with tearful eyes. I was a little stunned. It seemed that I really didn't know Hongdou's previous experience. Hongdou and Ling'er actually knew each other.

I took the bun from Hongdou's hand and took a light bite. The taste of the bun seemed to have changed, and it was full of sadness. "Then why did you break up?" Seeing that Hongdou was about to break down and cry again, I decided to continue telling the story.

"Ling'er and I divided the work, but I was stupid and got caught. The man wanted to break my legs with a stick, but Ling'er stopped him and blocked the stick for me. Ling'er pushed me away with all her might, but I got scared and turned around and left. When I was about to starve to death, it was Miss Zi Fu who saved my life. Later, I came to Shannai's side and have been here ever since."

Having said this, my heart was really broken. I was just a child at that time and I ran away timidly. It was an instinctive reaction, but Hongdou looked so guilty that it seemed like she would be blown away by the wind.

I pushed a glass of wine in front of Hongdou and said, "Do you think she is dead?" This is also my guess, otherwise Hongdou must have looked for Ling'er over the years, but it seems that Hongdou has no intention of doing so.

"No, I know she is not dead. I am too ashamed to see her. I saw Ling'er being sold to Manxianglou with my own eyes. I wanted to save her, but I was almost caught several times. I was timid again and I didn't dare to. I saw those servants holding knives. After I was slashed, I never went near Manxianglou again."

After Hongdou finished speaking, he drank the whole pot of wine. Looking at Hongdou, he could drink two more pots. What the hell, is Hongdou's alcohol tolerance so good? However, Hongdou's life experience is really miserable to a certain extent.

So it seemed understandable that Hongdou was crying, and the only thing she could do at this time was to drink a glass of wine. After that, Hongdou and I stopped talking and just kept drinking. However, I completely underestimated Hongdou's alcohol tolerance, or rather, I overestimated my own alcohol tolerance.

When I blacked out, I didn't know how I woke up. When I woke up, I was already in bed and my head was spinning. I must have been given sobering soup or something like that. Waking up without a headache was the most refreshing thing.

Thinking back to the time when we drank together, we would get our heads exploded, and then tell people we would never drink again, but then go back to drink again. It was a vicious cycle, and the door was soon pushed open. Hongdou pushed the door open and came in, holding a basin of water, still smiling.

"Are you okay?" I remembered that Hongdou drank much more than me. Why did I just wake up now? Hongdou looked fine.

"Ah, miss, please get up. I can drink a lot, and my special hangover soup is also a great one. I gave you some yesterday." Seeing Hongdou full of energy, he also breathed a sigh of relief.

Just now, I was worried for a moment that Hongdou would be depressed and unable to recover because of what happened last night. Now it seems that I was overthinking. If Hongdou's emotional control was really that poor, she wouldn't be in the position she is in today.

I haven't eaten with Hongdou for a long time. When I looked outside, I was a little confused. Don't we have to go to the store to open today? I looked at Hongdou, and my eyes were full of doubts. Hongdou seemed to see it.

"Who can stand working like this every day? You must take a break." It seems so. Hongdou seems to have been working non-stop for many days. She really needs a break. Otherwise, who can stand it?

I hadn't finished my meal when I remembered the question Hongdou asked me yesterday. I looked at the rice in the bowl and felt a little bit unable to eat. I decided to just speak it out. It was really uncomfortable to keep things hidden in my heart.

"When I first found out about it, I couldn't control it anymore. Everything was arranged. All we can do is protect Zi Fu." What I said was true. What I'm most afraid of now is Zi Fu. I've always had a one-on-one contact with Zi Fu.

"Sister Lan didn't say anything." Hongdou probably felt the same as I did, not knowing what had happened to Zi Fu. She really wanted to go see her.

"Then do you know where Zi Fu is?" Seeing Hongdou shaking her head, the hope that had just been ignited was shattered again. After finishing everything, he continued to draw the face. Looking at the papers on the floor, he began to get annoyed. What was going on?

Three strokes are needed to draw out the charm. Now I can't even draw a single line with three strokes. I need to think of a simpler way, or a quick way. I want to call it the Golden Pig, but it seems like I owe it to him.

I should shamelessly look for Jin Zhu. When Jin Zhu lay on his side on my desk like a big boss, I don’t know who he learned it from, but now I need his help, so I must be nicer. “Hey, Jin Zhu, are you sleeping comfortably?”

"Where is my thing that can be melted into gold?" You can tell what I want to do just by looking at the golden pig's butt. Looking at the golden pig's attitude, it seems that he wants to solve this matter first. He still wants to struggle later, but the golden pig's attitude is very tough.

"You have forgotten how many times I have dealt with it all by myself, right? But this time it won't work. If you continue to mess with me, I will not be able to practice anymore!"
